Off-Piste
Provisions
OFF-PISTE to deviate from what is conventional, usual, or expected.
My first food memories began at my parents grocery store watching my mom in the deli and my dad participate in the annual Ennis Hunter's Feed where local businesses competed for the best wild game dish - things like rattlesnake chili and bacon-wrapped duck (before that was cool) were things that stuck with a kid.
Growing up in a place like Ennis makes you feel a sense of place, and it wasn't until I began to travel that I started to understand what it means to be from somewhere. This made me focus on utilizing traditional ingredients from the Rocky Mountain & Northern Plains regions, embracing the hunter-gatherer culture that allowed people to inhabit these areas for thousands of years and introducing people to flavors and experiences that they have never had.
Off-Piste procures ingredients from Montana farmers, ranchers, foragers and producers whose dedication to sustainable agriculture assures us with a consistent supply of fresh and pure regional ingredients.
We strive to make each event memorable and one of a kind whether it be a wedding, birthday, cooking class, rehearsal dinner or evening after skiing with family. All of our menus and events are inspired by the season and by you, so before we can give you a price we need to learn more about what you have in mind. Please send us an email with your thoughts and inquiries. We can also travel to many locations across Southwest Montana with a proper heads-up! Cheers!
